Re: [NV-L] NetView upgrade from 7.1.4 to 7.1.5

[James Shanks <jshanks@us.ibm.com>]

Technically you should be installing on RHEL 4 according to the NetView Installation Guide for 7.1.5. You can view it here along with all the rest of the NetView 7.1.5 documentation:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v3r1/index.jsp?toc=/com.ibm.itnetview.doc/toc.xml

That said, you might be able to run for awhile if you add following line explicitly in /usr/OV/bin/NVenvironment :

export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5

and restart ALL NetView Daemons (ovstop nvsecd; /etc/init.d/netnmrc

But in my view this would only be a temporary solution since you are not in a supported environment.

Subject	[NV-L] NetView upgrade from 7.1.4 to 7.1.5

Hi 

I am trying to upgrade netview-appl on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 server from netview 7.1.4 with fixpack5 to netview 7.1.5 (base) 

Because the installation fails in the configuration-step, when I run the installation (instalnv -k SERVER -u) and get the below message: 

NOTE:    Starting nvserverd 
 object manager name: nvserverd 
 behavior:            OVs_WELL_BEHAVED 
 state:               NOT_RUNNING 
 PID:                 8572 
 last message:

base:    Failure running script or command '/usr/OV/install/tools/nvconfigbf' 
ERR_bcfg_210 
base:    Failing base.config with exit code 2 


Is it not possible to run netview 7.1.5 on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 server or do I need to upgrade Linux ES 3 to Linux ES 4 first ?? 
  
Hope you can help answer it. 

Thanks
